Telangana: Rain Affected Families In Hyderabad Stage Protest Against Government

On the 31st of October, the residents of various flood hit areas in Hyderabad protested before the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC,) in Uppal.

The victims of Hyderabad rain, from Secunderabad and Malkajgiri areas, demanded financial aid from the State Government. 

The victims alleged the compensation money announced by the Government is being distributed to only a few people and others are waiting for their compensation. 

According to sources, the protestors tried to siege the GHMC office. 

However, the Hyderabad police interrupted them and controlled the situation.

The protestors said, “The officials are being partial in handing over the financial aid of Rs. 10,000 announced by the government.”

In one similar incident, a woman in Amberpet intercepted the car of Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) Venkatesh and complained about not receiving financial aid.

Meanwhile, a person from Golnaka attempted to commit suicide.  However, the police reacted swiftly and shifted him to a hospital.

Residents from Rajiv Nagar staged a protest on Balanagar-Medak road demanding to provide the financial aid announced by the Government. 

The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) Government has announced Rs. 10,000 financial aid to each of the families affected due to rains in Telangana.
